Thanks for the response and the suggestions. I understand the SharePoint approach.
I watched some videos showing how Power Apps includes this, and it looks fine, but I’m trying to understand the additional license requirements. So that anyone could add or edit issues/risks, would that require the whole team to purchase power app licenses? Or one member to build the app then a portal license add on so that the rest could use?
I’m hoping a simple issues/risks log will be a future enhancement to Project for the Web. It seems like a basic feature for project management.

Hi Kevin80 ,
Take a look at the Project service description as that has some details on licensing: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/office365/servicedescriptions/project-online-service-description/project-online-service-description#project-for-the-web-features - scroll down to the "Customization and integration" for Project for the web. Each user accessing the custom app would need the licenses not just the person building the app.
Regarding Issues and Risks as a default entity in Project for the web - take a look at uservoice and raise the idea there as that is where product team look for new ideas 🙂 https://microsoftproject.uservoice.com/forums/914203-project-for-the-web
